## Who we are

We are a newly-established, small game development studio with a passion for VR. We're inviting the community to join us in creating innovative virtual experiences. In addition to offering attractive monetary prizes, we may extend an invitation to the winners to collaborate with us on this future product. So this game jam serves as both a platform to discover fresh ideas and an opportunity to find talented teammates, though these aspects are not strongly dependent on each other.

Note: A VR headset is not a requirement for this jam. Feel free to implement a desktop Mac version, but please keep in mind the physical nature of the jam.

## Theme and requirements

We propose to create a prototype of a game where you play from the first-person perspective as a lumberjack. What specific mechanics to add is your choice. Get your imagination going: cut trees, dig, trap, pick berries, fish, shoot, clean boots, drink bourbon, or anything else you'd like. 

A key thing is to think of how that would play in VR, assume some physicality of the process, environmental resistance and such. It's pretty noticeable in VR when you do one thing and the effect is somewhat disconnected from the cause. The goal of this jam is to build mechanics that feel native to the medium.

Obviously, this will shine in full color in VR with hand control. But since not everyone has headsets yet, the same effect can be achieved with mouse control. We won't add extra points for VR support, but it might be more fun for you to do it in VR if you have the opportunity, to better feel the spirit of a lumberjack :)
